"Quote: Interesting reading on the general section forum of the BALPA website at the moment, regarding the Wings scheme in general and flexicrew in particular. Particularly interesting is the allegation that CTC have paid some cadets' bonds off to avoid the negative publicity of the aforementioned cadets declaring bankruptcy. Smoke, fire? You decide. "
TFlexMax80 - I'm certainly not shooting the messenger, and what you have just said is the absolute first instance I have heard of anything like that happening. The first thought that comes to my mind: CTC 'paying off cadet's bonds', erm, sounds like a fantastically great thing to do for those cadets! Surely that can only be GOOD?
Just a little confused as to why it would be an 'allegation', we all know there are a fair number of qualified cadets without jobs, wouldn't it be GREAT for them if CTC actually saved them from bankruptcy and helped them out financially?
Like I said, never heard of this happening myself, and I find it difficult to believe. But cadets in troube NOT going bankrupt? Would be great (if true) in my opinion.
